Principles of an Engineering Economy
16
To develop alternatives, engineers may use a variety
of tools and techniques, such as brainstorming,
SWOT analysis, and cost-benefit analysis. They may
also involve other stakeholders, such as clients, users,
and subject matter experts, in the process to ensure
that all relevant perspectives are considered.
•SWOT stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats,
and so a SWOT analysis is a technique for assessing these four
aspects of your business.

2. Focus on Differences:
18
Focusing on the difference allows engineers to find
the important elements that distinguish the options
and make informed conclusions about which one is
best. It is a key decision-making phase because it
allows engineers to evaluate solutions based on the
exact criteria that are most relevant to their needs and
goals.
19
3. Use a consistent view point:
20
where it involves comparing the costs and benefits of different
alternatives in order to choose the most cost-effective option.
21
4.Use of common unit of measure :
The principle of using a common unit of measurement
refers to the idea that when evaluating different
alternatives, it is important to use a consistent unit of
measurement in order to make fair and accurate
comparisons. This principle is often applied in
engineering economics, where it involves comparing the
costs and benefits of different alternatives in order to
choose the most cost-effective option
22
5. Consider all Relevant Criteria:
23
6. Make Uncertainty Explicit:
The principle of making uncertainty explicit relates to the
idea that it is critical to acknowledge and account for any
uncertainty or uncertainty in the data or assumptions used
in the analysis while evaluating different alternatives.
This theory is frequently used in engineering economics
to compare the costs and advantages of many alternatives
in order to select the most cost-effective solution.
24
7. Revisit your decisions : The principle of revisiting your
decision refers to the idea that it is important to periodically
review and assess your decisions in order to ensure that they
are still relevant and appropriate given any changes in the
circumstances. This principle is often applied in engineering
economics, where it involves reviewing and assessing the
costs and benefits of different alternatives in order to ensure
that the chosen option is still the most cost-effective.

Economics is sometimes defined as the study of the
allocation of scarce social resources among unlimited
ends. It follows that Managerial Economics is the study
of allocation of the resources available to a firm or
other unit of management among the activities of that
unit. Such a definition implies that managerial
Economics is concerned with choice – with the
selection among alternatives.

PLANNING or decision upon business goals and the
methods to achieve them;
ORGANIZING or determining the best allocation of
